翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Menikkadawara fort ： ウィキペディア英語版 Menikkadawara fort Menikkadawara fort ((シンハラ語:මැනික්කඩවර බලකොටුව)), was a small fort located at Menikkadawara, Kegalle. The Portuguese called the place, ''Manicravaré'' or ''Manicavarê''. In January 1599 the Portuguese erected a ''tranqueira'' (a wooden stockade) on the site.〔In 1603 the Portuguese were forced to withdraw from the area by the Kandyan forces. In 1626, under the supervision of the Portuguese Governor, Constantino de Sá de Noronha, the fort was upgraded and strengthened,〔 the rectangular fortification was known as the ''Forte Santa Fe'' or the ''Cidadela (Citadel) of Forte Cruz'', it had four bastions on each corner, named Saõ Iago, Saõ Boa Ventura, Saõ Jorge and Saõ Pedro. The fort was not a major structure and its status as a fort is questionable given that it consists mainly of earth ramparts. It did however play an strategic important role against the Kandyan kingdom, as the main marshalling point for Portuguese forces in their ongoing fight against the Kingdom of Kandy.〔 It was recorded that approximately 400 Portuguese soldiers were garrisoned in the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Caves, secret tunnels and a forgotten fort )〕 In the 1630s the fort fell to Kandyan forces, as the result of ongoining rebellion against the Portuguese invasion of the Kingdom of Kandy. The Portuguese however re-captured it. Following the defeat of the Portuguese in 1658, the area was re-occupied by the forces of the Kingdom of Kandy. The Menikkadawara fort lost its strategic role, once the Dutch secured control of Ceylon.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Mirror Life )〕 Today the only remains of the fort that are visible are the earthern ramparts, which are overgrown with grass and weeds. The only other indication of the former fort is a sign erected on the site by the Department of Archaeology Department.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Portuguese fort at Menikkadawara )〕 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Menikkadawara fort」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
